walking with 2 dogs

Subject: walking with 2 dogs Wed Jul 15, 2009 3:56 pm

As you all know I can take Kala out on Saturday and I have to get used to walking two dogs (thats gonna be fun with madam!!) Marley is used to walking on the left as that is what we were told we had to do at dog training. So the question is should I train Kala to walk on the left? is there a reason why its a must if it is?

Sorry if you think this is a stupid question but someone has mentioned it to me today

Don't forget the camera :san57: loads of pics please
When i take the grim twins out together.... BB is walked on the left and Xsara on the right.. keeps me balanced :san22:
I don't think there's a right or wrong way hun.. just whatever you are comfortable with :love:
Look forward to hearing all about their walk

Yeah jude i was always told to walk the dog on the left
but when you have two dogs they cant both be on the left
so like lynne i walk the two boys either side of me.
Just find a way that suits you hun. walking with 2 dogs 729386

your taught to walk your dog on the left as thats the norm in the dog world but i actually train mine to walk on both sides as we walk round country lanes a lot i want my dogs on the inside. also competing in agility you work them on both sides.

walk them how you feel comfty hun i walk my lot either two on the left or one each side if i take more they double or triple up lol

I dont think the dogs care which side they go on Jude, like Fazza said, its just the left for training :love: I cant walk all mine on one side
